Answer:

Part A) Use the identity tan^2(A)+1=sec^2(A)

Part B) cot(A)=-\frac{3\sqrt{7}}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

tan^2(A)+1=sec^2(A) ----> by trigonometric identity

we have

sec(A)=\frac{4}{3}

substitute in the expression above

tan^2(A)+1=(\frac{4}{3})^2

solve for tan(A)

tan^2(A)+1=\frac{16}{9}

tan^2(A)=\frac{16}{9}-1

tan^2(A)=\frac{7}{9}

square root both sides

tan(A)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}

Remember that Angle A terminates in quadrant IV

so

The value of tan(A) is negative

tan(A)=-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}

<em>Find the value of cot(A)</em>

we know that

cot(A)=\frac{1}{tan(A)} ----> is the reciprocal

therefore

cot(A)=-\frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}

simplify

cot(A)=-\frac{3\sqrt{7}}{7}

Please help with this question!!!
marin [14]

Answer:

length: 12 ft

area: 72 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the mat in feet. Then L/2 is the width and the perimeter is ...

P = 36 = 2(L +L/2) = 3L . . . . . substitute the given information and simplify

12 = L . . . . . . divide by 3

The length of the mat is 12 ft.

__

The width of the mat is L/2 = 6 ft, and the area is the product of length and width.

Area = (12 ft)(6 ft) = 72 ft^2

The area of the mat is 72 square feet.

At the scene of a crime, the police have found a blood stain, a footprint, and some threads from a fabric. All are presumed to h
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

There is a 0.175% chance of finding such a person who has all three characteristics.

Out of 4,000 people, 7 people would likely to match all three characteristics.

Step-by-step explanation:

A crime has been committed and after analyzing the evidence, police has found out that:

  1. The criminal's blood type is a type found in only 10% of the population.
  2. The criminal's footprint is a size 13 men's shoe and only 7% of the population wears such shoe size.
  3. Only 25% of the population owns clothing made from a fabric that matches the thread samples found at the scene.

We required to find out the probability of selecting a random person who would match all of these characteristics.

Since it is given that the three characteristics are independent of each other then the required probability is  

P(all 3 characteristics) = P(1st characteristic)*P(2nd characteristic)*P(3rd characteristic)

P(all 3 characteristics) = (10/100)*(7/100)*(25/100)

P(all 3 characteristics) = 1750/1,000,000

P(all 3 characteristics) = 7/4000

P(all 3 characteristics) = 0.00175

P(all 3 characteristics) = 0.175%

So out of 4,000 people, 7 people would likely to match all three characteristics.

or

There is a 0.175% chance of finding such a person who has all three characteristics
